        Just a Small Town

        by Paul Linggood

        A small town that could be anywhere: industry is in decline, streets are in decay, many have left, while those left behind take short-term joy in drugs. Four young people are among the left behind. Alex consumes heroin to escape his abusive father. Jim hides from guilt after the death of the friend he didn’t save. Chelsi’s brother killed a local boy, and ostracism pushes her towards a rival gang, prostitution and loneliness. Danny is a hustler but needs protection from the drug gang that supplies him. Can any of them survive the addiction, gang life, isolation and manipulation? Their small town could be anywhere.

        Here come the Aspie girls!

        by Christine Deroin,Gilles Martinez

        Alice is a teenager everyone has always described as high-potential without recognizing the depth of her discomfort. Moving and changing middle schools throws her for a loop, bringing out these aspects of her personality. Her admiration for Fanny, star of the class, and her desire to be like her just to be loved, will endanger her and send her world spinning. Asperger syndrome is rarely diagnosed in children, but doing so earlier would not only help teenage girls who have it thrive, but also those around them learn to accept it.

        Dysfferent

        by Fanny Vandermeersch

        What a strange idea to call a child Charlemagne! Without this strange name, Charly is sure that he would be a child like any other... except for a few adjectives. He is said to be too distracted, dissipated, dispersed... to the great displeasure of the adults around him. And that often makes him the mockery of his classmates. Charlemagne is dyslexic, dysorthographic and dyspraxic. But who said that multi-dys children were good for nothing? Maybe it's a chance to be different!

        Jake is a small-town boy from the U.S. He has a beautiful voice and a dream: to enroll at the Juilliard School in New York, a temple of music from which complete performers emerge. Although his family is skeptical, Jake is supported by his childhood friends, among whom there is Stella, the girl he has always loved. But something changes from the day Jake passes the auditions for the "To be a Star!" talent show. His relationship with Stella evolves, and Jake's group is introduced to the mysterious and disturbing Daniel, another contestant on the show. Who really is Daniel Adler? A demon with an angel's voice or a fragile and somewhat bizarre artist? Accompanied by the cathartic power of music, along with lyrics studded with emotional songs, Jake will discover the price of growing up through a toxic and destructive friendship, the trials a love must go through to become mature, and the defeat that leads to ultimate victory.

        DYSLEXIA DISMANTLED

        A practical breakdown of the myths and realities of dyslexia

        by Laughton King

        Finally, an insightful, clear and practical breakdown of the realities of dyslexia, from the author’s own life experience. This exposition of the thinking, learning and living style that characterise the dyslexic individual is written equally for the educator, the parent and the struggling dyslexic himself. Eighteen myths dispelled, 61 personal characteristics outlined, and a raft of indicators examined, this book will help a large section of the population understand their own normality, their own intact and integrated thinking style, and allow them to take positive charge of their learning processes and their functioning in society. There is nothing wrong with their brain wiring, they are not deficient, they do not need medication. As a diesel motor differs from a petrol engine, the so-called ‘dyslexic’ differs from the non-dyslexic in a simple and rudimentary way. The Western world has a modern education system based around language as the prime learning tool – teaching, learning and assessment are typically language-based. The ‘dyslexic’ person is disadvantaged in this system, not only because is he a pictorial thinker, but because of a lesser capacity to use 'internal dialogue', he is unable to process the language-based education system at a competitive level.

        La versión de Eric (Eric's version)

        by Nando López

        GRAN ANGULAR PRIZE 2020 -   In this world of images and appearances, keeping silent or hiding are not an option if we are to defend the inalienable right to be who we are and to defend who we want to be. La versión de Eric combines the intrigue of a thriller with the intimate perspective of its narrator protagonist. The action unfolds in a police station, late at night. As Eric waits to talk to the police about the crime that has just occurred, he recalls his past and everything that led up to the events that have brought him here: he was nine years old when his father left home, eleven when the nightmares started, thirteen the first time he was admitted, fourteen when he met Tania. His friendship with Tania will play a key role in his life as, together, they set out on a new path that leads them to discover and accept themselves. It is through Tania that he takes up acting classes, Lorca, the series, success, followers… but also, on that terrible night, full of secrets, there will be a corpse on the tarmac and half-truths in abundance. Eric just wants his version of the story to be told.
